Synthesis and Structure Determination of Some New N‐Glycosides of 4,5‐Disubstituted‐1,2,4‐Triazole‐3‐Thiones

Some new N‐glycosides of 4‐(2‐phenylethyl)‐5‐pyridyl‐1,2,4‐triazole‐3‐thiones were synthesised by the coupling reaction of halo sugar with 4,5‐disubstituted 3H‐1,2,4‐triazole‐3‐thiones in the presence of mercuric cyanide and dry nitromethane as solvent, followed by deprotection using dry ammonia in methanol. All of the above compounds were fully characterized by means of infrared, ¹H NMR spectroscopy, mass spectroscopy and elemental analysis.     

GIAO/DFT studies on 1,2,4‐triazole‐5‐thiones and their propargyl derivatives

Density functional theory (DFT)/Becke–Lee–Yang–Parr (B3LYP) and gauge‐including atomic orbital (GIAO) calculations were performed on a number of 1,2,4‐triazole derivatives, and the optimized structural parameters were employed to ascertain the nature of their predominant tautomers. ¹³C and ¹⁵N NMR chemical shifts of 3‐substituted 1,2,4‐triazole‐5‐thiones and their propargylated derivatives were calculated via GIAO/DFT approach at the B3LYP level of theory with geometry optimization using a 6‐311++G** basis set. A good agreement between theoretical and experimental ¹³C and ¹⁵N NMR chemical shifts could be found for the systems investigated. The data generated were useful in predicting ¹⁵N chemical shifts of all the nitrogen atoms of the triazole ring, some of which could not be obtained in solution state ¹⁵N HMBC/HSQC NMR measurements. The energy profile computed for the dipropargylated derivatives was found to follow the product distribution profile of regioisomers formed during propargylation of 1,2,4‐triazole thiones.

Synthesis and Characterization of Novel 1‐Methyl‐3‐(4‐phenyl‐4H‐1,2,4‐triazol‐3‐yl)‐1H‐indazole Derivatives

A series of novel 1‐methyl‐3‐(4‐phenyl‐4H‐1,2,4‐triazol‐3‐yl)‐1H‐indazoles was synthesized in three steps from 5‐(1‐methyl‐1H‐indazol‐3‐yl)‐4‐phenyl‐2H‐1,2,4‐triazole‐3(4H)‐thiones. 5‐(1‐Methyl‐1H‐indazol‐3‐yl)‐4‐phenyl‐2H‐1,2,4‐triazole‐3(4H)‐thiones were converted into 1‐methyl‐3‐(5‐(methylsulfonyl)‐4‐phenyl‐4H‐1,2,4‐triazol‐3‐yl)‐1H‐indazoles upon methylation followed by treatment with aq. KMnO₄. The reaction of 1‐methyl‐3‐(5‐(methylsulfonyl)‐4‐phenyl‐4H‐1,2,4‐triazol‐3‐yl)‐1H‐indazoles with Raney nickel resulted in desulphonylation to afford corresponding 1‐methyl‐3‐(4‐phenyl‐4H‐1,2,4‐triazol‐3‐yl)‐1H‐indazoles. All the new synthesized compounds were characterized by spectral techniques.

A series of novel 4‐(2‐(4‐bromophenyl)‐1,2,3‐triazol‐4‐yl)‐3,4‐dihydropyrimidin‐2(1H)‐ones/thiones were prepared by condensing 2‐(4‐bromophenyl)‐4‐formyl‐1,2,3‐triazole with 1,3‐dicarbonyl compound and urea or thiourea using Mg(NO₃)₂ as an efficient and cheap catalyst. The satisfactory results were obtained with excellent yields and short reaction time. J. Heterocyclic Chem., (2010).     

Heterocyclic synthesis containing bridgehead nitrogen atom: Synthesis of 3‐[(2H)‐2‐oxobenzo[b]pyran‐3‐yl]‐s‐triazolo[3,4‐b]‐1,3,4‐thiadiazine and thiazole derivatives

The reaction of 2H‐2‐oxobenzo[b]pyran‐3‐hydrazide ( 2 ) with carbon disulfide in basic DMF afforded potassium thiocarbamate 3 , which readily underwent heterocyclization upon its reaction with hydrazine and/or phenacyl bromide to yield 1,2,4‐tiazole ( 4 ) and thiazole 7 derivatives, respectively. Condensation of 4 with substituted phenacyl bromide and/or chloranil gave 1,2,4‐triazole[3,4‐b]thiadiazine ( 5a,b ) and 3,10‐bis‐[2H‐2‐oxobenzo[b]pyran‐3‐yl]‐6,13‐dichloro‐bis‐1,2,4‐triazolo[3,4‐b]‐1,3,4‐thiadiazino[5′,6′‐b:5′,6′‐e]cyclohexa‐1,4‐diene ( 6 ), respectively. Cyclization of thiosemicarbazide 10 by refluxing it in sodium hydroxide and/or phosphoryl chloride afforded triazole 13 and thiadiazole 15 derivatives, respectively. Also, 10 reacted with phenacyl bromide in the presence of anhydrous sodium acetate to give the oxothiazolidine derivative 17 . The structure of the synthesized compounds were confirmed by elemental analyses, IR, ¹H NMR, and mass spectra. © 2003 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Synthesis of Bis‐Heterocyclic 1H‐Imidazole 3‐Oxides from 3‐Oxido‐1H‐imidazole‐4‐carbohydrazides

The reaction of 1H‐imidazole‐4‐carbohydrazides 1 , which are conveniently accessible by treatment of the corresponding esters with NH₂NH₂?H₂O, with isothiocyanates in refluxing EtOH led to thiosemicarbazides (=hydrazinecarbothioamides) 4 in high yields (Scheme 2). Whereas 4 in boiling aqueous NaOH yielded 2,4‐dihydro‐3H‐1,2,4‐triazole‐3‐thiones 5 , the reaction in concentrated H₂SO₄ at room temperature gave 1,3,4‐thiadiazol‐2‐amines 6 . Similarly, the reaction of 1 with butyl isocyanate led to semicarbazides 7 , which, under basic conditions, undergo cyclization to give 2,4‐dihydro‐3H‐1,2,4‐triazol‐3‐ones 8 (Scheme 3). Treatment of 1 with Ac₂O yielded the diacylhydrazine derivatives 9 exclusively, and the alternative isomerization of 1 to imidazol‐2‐ones was not observed (Scheme 4). It is important to note that, in all these transformations, the imidazole N‐oxide residue is retained. Furthermore, it was shown that imidazole N‐oxides bearing a 1,2,4‐triazole‐3‐thione or 1,3,4‐thiadiazol‐2‐amine moiety undergo the S‐transfer reaction to give bis‐heterocyclic 1H‐imidazole‐2‐thiones 11 by treatment with 2,2,4,4‐tetramethylcyclobutane‐1,3‐dithione (Scheme 5).

Synthesis and Characterization of Novel N‐Alkylamine‐ and N‐Cycloalkylamine‐Derived 2‐Benzoyl‐N‐aminohydrazinecarbothioamides, 1,3,4‐Thiadiazoles and 1,2,4‐Triazole‐5(4H)thiones

4‐Aminomorpholine, 1‐aminopiperidine, and 1,1‐dimethylhydrazine were carried out in the corresponding methyl dithiocarbamates and those in turn in aminohydrazinethioamides, which under the influence of acid chlorides (benzoyl, 4‐chlorobenzoyl, 4‐fluorobenzoyl, 4‐methoxybenzoyl and 2‐furoyl) gave arylcarbonyl derivatives. Those compounds were cyclized in concentrated H₂SO₄ to 2‐(N‐cycloalkylamino‐ and N‐dimethylamino)‐amino‐5‐phenyl‐1,3,4‐thiadiazole derivatives and in 10% NaOH aqueous solution to 4‐cycloalkylamino‐ and 4‐dimethylamino‐3‐phenyl‐1,2,4‐triazole‐5(4H)‐thiones.     

New polyelectrolytes based on 4‐vinyl‐1,2,3‐triazole and 1‐vinylimidazole

Copolymers of 4‐vinyl‐1,2,3‐triazole and 1‐vinylimidazole (VI) were obtained by radical copolymerization of (4‐vinyl‐1H‐1,2,3‐triazol‐1‐yl)methyl pivalate with VI followed by alkali hydrolysis. Reactivity ratios of the triazole and imidazole monomers are 0.51 and 0.30, respectively. Theoretical quantum‐chemical calculations by the PM3 semiempirical method give close values, which show that the obtained reactivity ratios reflect the activity of the vinyl groups. Polyelectrolyte properties of the copolymers were studied by potentiometric titration. Hydrogen bonds between the protonated triazole cycle and the triazole or imidazole units were found to considerably influence the solubility and solution properties of the copolymers. © 2012 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

New N‐(Aryl)‐5‐((quinolin‐8‐yloxy)methyl)‐1,3,4‐oxa/Thiadiazol‐2‐amines and 4‐Aryl‐5‐((quinolin‐8‐yloxy)methyl)‐2H‐1,2,4‐triazole‐3(4H)‐thiones,Synthesis and Characterization

In this study, methyl 2‐(quinolin‐8‐yloxy) acetate ( 2 ) obtained by reaction of 8‐hydroxyquinoline ( 1 ) with methyl chloroacetate was condensed with hydrazine hydrate to afford the carbohydrazide ( 3 ). Thio/semicarbazide derivatives ( 4a , 4b , 4c , 4d , 4e , 4f , 4g ) were obtained by treatment of the 3 with substituted phenyl iso/thioisocyanates. The 4a , 4b , 4c , 4d , 4e , 4f , 4g on acidic and basic intramolecular cyclization led to N‐(aryl)‐5‐((quinolin‐8‐yloxy)methyl)‐1,3,4‐oxa/thiadiazol‐2‐amines ( 5a , 5b , 5c , 5d , 5e , 5f , 5g ) and 4‐aryl‐5‐((quinolin‐8‐yloxy)methyl)‐2H‐1,2,4‐triazole‐3(4H)‐thiones ( 6a , 6b , 6c , 6d , 6e , 6f , 6g ), respectively. All the synthesized compounds were characterized by spectroscopic techniques and elemental analyses. The thiosemicarbazide ( 4c ) was also confirmed by X‐ray crystallography.

Synthesis and antimicrobial evaluation of some 1,2,4‐triazole, 1,3,4‐oxa(thia)diazole,and 1,2,4‐triazolo[3,4‐b]‐1,3,4‐thiadiazine derivatives

3‐Methyl‐2‐benzofurancarboxylic acid hydrazide ( 2 ) reacts with carbon disulfide and pota‐ ssium hydroxide to give the corresponding potassium carbodithioate salt 3 . Treatment of the latter salt with hydrochloric acid, hydrazine hydrate, and with phen‐ acyl bromide afforded the corresponding 1,3,4‐oxadia‐ zole‐5‐thione 4 , 4‐amino‐1,2,4‐triazole‐5‐thione 5 , and thiazolidine‐2‐thione 9 derivatives, respectively. The reaction of either 1,3,4‐oxadiazole‐5‐thione 4 or 4‐amino‐1,2,4‐triazole‐5‐thione 5 with phenacyl bromide resulted in the formation of 1,2,4‐triazolo[3, 4‐b]‐1,3,4‐thiadiazine derivative 8 . Treatment of compounds 3 or 4 with hydrazonoyl halides 10a–d furn‐ ished the same 1,3,4‐thiadiazol‐2‐ylidene derivatives 11a–d . The 7‐arylhydrazono‐1,2,4‐triazolo[3,4‐ b ]‐1, 3,4‐thiadiazine derivatives 12a–d were obtained either by treatment of 4‐amino‐1,2,4‐triazole‐5‐thione 5 with hydrazonoyl halides 10a–d or by coupling of the 1,2,4‐triazolo[3,4‐b]‐1,3,4‐thiadiazine derivative 8 with diazonium salts. © 2005 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
